Group on Earth Observations (GEO)

❓ Why work with the Group on Earth Observations? 😵💫 We live in an era of exponential data growth and planetary-scale crises. 🤝 At GEO, we foster connections to tackle global challenges through innovative solutions that harness the power of Earth Intelligence. 🌏 We strive to make data and services accessible to enhance sustainable development and environmental management We are always on the lookout for opportunities to establish new relationships with governments, academia, intergovernmental and international governments, civil society, and the private sector.

🌍💙🛰️📡As Chief of Member Services at GEO, I have the privilege of liaising with governments worldwide to facilitate the onboarding and retention of new Members, as well as the provision of governance services and capacity building support, ensuring a growing global network committed to using #EarthIntelligence for a more resilient planet. Proud to contribute to such a meaningful mission! 🌱 #EarthIntelligenceForAll 🌎🧠

Looking back at the 8th AfriGEO Symposium 2024 in Nairobi, Kenya, it was inspiring to see experts and stakeholders from across #Africa and beyond come together to shape the future of #EarthObservation (EO) on the continent. During the event, I had the privilege of participating in a crucial Plenary Session on "Understanding National Earth Observation (EO) Capabilities Towards National Coordination Mechanism (NCM)." I presented the #NigeriaEarthObservationMaturity (EOM) Assessment Outcomes—a significant step in strengthening our national EO capabilities. The discussions emphasized the critical role of National Coordination Mechanisms (NCMs) in utilizing EO for sustainable development. We explored how the EO maturity assessment can drive nations toward more coordinated and effective use of EO data. The symposium served as an excellent platform for exchange, and I look forward to the continued collaboration and innovation that will arise from these discussions.
